i put mine together in a saturday. you can get coolers off ebay cheap, 100 bucks give or take a few bucks. the tubes are available online too, i used a combination of 6.0 and 7.3 tubes to get my bends the way i wanted them and used the rubber connections to hold it all together.

here are stock pipes, i think if you use a 7.3 intercooler all you have to do is add a small length to the one side.

here is the whole kit

I did mine for $240. Only wish I had done the 6.0 cooler rather than the 7.3 cooler.
